If his seventeen years of experience has taught Craig Lawton only one thing, it's this:
Life is too damn precious to throw away...
It's like, you know those dreams?"
Performing on a stage to a full audience?
When you're in the spotlight, and you look down-
And you realise you're completely naked?
Caught off-guard without a script.
No lines. No cues. No curtain-call.
That's me. All the time.
Ever since I was caught out and exposed.
Betrayed. Shamed. Ruined.
By someone I should never have trusted.
I made a single mistake, and it cost me everything.
My school, my friends, and my freedom.
Mum wouldn't look at me.
Dad took control of me.
I flipped the page and started fresh.
But still, that wasn't enough.
There's nothing I can do now that'd ever be enough.
It's at rock bottom that Sebastian Davis finds me.
I'm his worst nightmare.
He's my best hope.
The ground has not been steady beneath my feet for so long,
I've forgotten how it feels.
And no matter how hard he refuses,
It seems that Sebastian has been fated to remind me.

War of Hearts (BoyxBoy) [Book 1: Unspeakable Series]
Theo People say that love brings out the best in you and I guess their partially right. But as for myself, well that's a different story. Love brought out the good, the bad, and the ugly with in me. It's a little ironic, don't you think? That something as beautiful and seemingly pure as love can be twisted and manipulated into something so unbearably grotesque ... dark. Love in whatever form, whether it's pure or dark is all consuming and that in itself is beautiful, right? And it's really just all a game. It has to be. But I've been losing it for so long to the supposed love of my life, my everything, my...brother. I've never really been able to handle losing and it was killing me. He was killing me in this awful...beautiful game of love and I just...lost it. This game was turning into a war. A war I had to win. A war of hearts. [Warning: this story contains mature content, graphic scenes, violence, sexual situations, explicit language, drug use, boy on boy love and a whole lot of other stuff that may make you uncomfortable.

Kiss, Marry, Kill
[MxMxMxMxM] ~ Charlie Hewitt has a secret: his past is not what it seems. He's managed to keep it to himself from the age of 18, when he left home, and buried himself in his friendship with Blake Anderson. But when his best friend found himself at the mercy of cruel, dominant men, Charlie stepped up. He's never regretted his decision, and he never will. But living fearlessly is easier said than done, especially when you've lived your entire life with fear. Second-guessing every breath, every word, every touch. But the first step to recovery is admitting there's a problem. Charlie clings to the belief that that's all it will take to put him on the right path. But will it?

My Prince Charming
"I can't be with you." I won't let them take the one good thing in my life. "Yes, you can Davis." Just one touch from him and he is the calm to my storm. I can be anyone with him, but that's not my reality. We've already been careless, and they could find out, hurt him, eventually kill him. I won't let that happen. "You don't understand." It's getting harder to shut down my feelings the more I'm around you and they will know somethings changed. "Then make me understand, damn it!" The anger in his tone hurts, but I'm doing this to him...to us. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." I'm not good for you. I'm not good for anyone. I have to go before I can't walk away, and I need to walk away. "If something is wrong then tell me. We'll fix this." It can't be fixed. I can't be fixed! You can't fix what's completely broken. "Goodbye Liam." "No!" His lips land on mine and I wish that could fix everything, but I kiss him back with all I can for one last time. When I pull away, I run out without looking back. It's for the best. I'll do anything to keep him safe even if it kills me. Sold into the world of child traffickers at a young age, Davis doesn't know any other type of life. Hell, he doesn't even remember his real name. Doing what his owners order him to do or pay the consequences. That is until he meets Liam Freeman. A handsome Australian who he just stumbled upon in a bar. One meeting with him and Davis wants more...a real chance at life. Will he ever be able to get away from the life he's only ever known?

Mr. Match (BoyxBoy) ✓
I'm Finn Vasco but that's not quite important right now. I'm a pretty sarcastic guy if I'm gonna be honest. I'm closed off and I literally only have one friend. I might hate everybody in my school... but there's this guy there. He's... let's say, dreamy, someone who I thought would never even acknowledge my existence. That guy who was too damn good to be true, who was too good for me, who was too good for... everybody! You get what I'm trying to say. He's that cliché king of the campus and a popular and attractive heartthrob and with just one wink, he can send people on their knees... That sounded so wrong, anyway. So can you blame me for being over the moon when one day, he approached me only to what? ...To ask for my help courting my freaking best friend. I knew it was stupid for me to hope I'd even have any chance with him anyway. So I just agreed to help him. Even if I was hurting myself and potentially my best friend in the process, my best friend who has been there with me through the thick and thins, I still did it... I mean what could go wrong besides literally everything? So my plan was to just set my crush and my best friend up, and then everything would be alright... right? But of course, life doesn't like it when people have it easy. *** Highest Ranking #2 on #lgbtfiction #5 on #boyxboy #6 on #gay #8 on #teenfiction *** ~ WARNING: This story contains strong language and bullying.

Always light the candles
We are too drunk and he is too close and even though we are in a room full of people, we are too alone. -------------------------- Notes: This fan fiction is dedicated to people who have experienced loss, people who were bullied, who struggled with their sexuality and or their race. People who use humour as their coping mechanism. People who feel like outcasts and freaks. People who fell in love with their best friends. You are not alone. You are Albus. And this is our story. It is also dedicated to grief, for showing me the true price for love. And most importantly dedicated to my one and only best friend. This story would not have seen the light of day, had our paths not diverged and our friendship not quietly scattered to the winds. In the closing of chapters, I made sure that the echo of our promises that we once held were not just words, but something truly heard. I will never not think of you during storms. Make sure to leave your thoughts and enjoy ;) This story can be also found on Ao3.Concluida
So Where Does that Put Us (boy x boy)
"When something terrible happens to someone, everyone feels sorry for you at first, they take your hand and cry fake tears and say how 'special' you are, how strong you are. But after a while they forget...Then they don't see a person anymore they just see this terrible thing and think you're terrible because of it...It's like a little switch that goes off in people's heads: one minute everyone is your friend and they care oh-so much, then, when things die down, they become terrified of you. You'd be surprised to see what fear can make someone do." Justin Ivanov has never led much of a normal life, but when his sister passes away, his entire world falls apart. Trapped in an abusive relationship and in a school where everyone is scared of him, Justin continues to deteriorate, pinning all his hope on his confused best friend, Ben Fulton. He struggles to keep his family together without them finding out the hidden secret of his sexuality. But the more he fails, the closer he gets to losing himself forever. Ben Fulton doesn't understand what depression is. He doesn't understand why people have it or how to fix it. But when the sudden death of his best friend's sister leaves him feeling empty, he comes too close to comfort with just what depression can make someone do. Trying to sort out his own emotions, sexuality, and future out, Ben also has to balance trying to save Justin. But the more he tries, the more his feelings grow for his best friend, and the closer Justin gets to destroying himself.Concluida

Tainted Wings
"Why are you so fucking scared of the truth?" He seethed. The truth. I slowly brought my hands up to his face and kissed him. I kissed him with a desperation akin to that of defying death. This is the closest to the truth you will ever get. I needed this. For the first time in my life i found myself wanting someone, needing someone. I needed his words, i needed his cruelty, i needed his insults, i needed every bit of him. **************************************************** A fracture in his facade.

A TASTE OF CANDY POISON
A NOT SO INNOCENT 'NERD' SEBASTIAN FERNANDEZ is known as the "nerd" at school though he's not really one. Sure, he's smart, but he hates being called that, especially since he doesn't even wear "nerdy" clothes or glasses. His twin once told him that he looks better in simple yet stylish outfits, and well, he followed that advice. But Sebastian, the so-called "nerd," has a secret. He's gay. And not just gay, he's been in love with one and only KYLLE WINSTON for a long time now. Everything changes when Sebastian is suddenly drugged and raped by his own best friend, MARK ANTHONY DESMOND. For most people, that would've been the end of a friendship, something unforgivable. But in Sebastian's case... he never reported it. He never even got angry. Crazy, right? As if destiny itself was toying with him, Sebastian keeps crossing paths with new people, including ARKIE LEWIS AUGUSTINE, a persistent stalker who eventually forces him to be his boyfriend. So, what will happen to Sebastian now? Will he let himself be manipulated again, or finally break free from the toxic people around him? _________________________________ "We're all just meant to meet each other but was never meant for each other" ________________________________ ♥ PLAGIARISM IS A CRIME ♥WILL DEFINITELY RE EDIT EVERYTHING AFTER I FINISHED THIS BOOK This book might contains some; •Error(yeah since English is not my first language so forgive me and correct me if I'm wrong) •SMUT(yeah I know what you're thinking,but don't report me, I'm begging hehe) •Strong Languages(I mean,some curses like 'fuck','shit',or something like that) •Angst •Cringe(hehe,yeah) •LGBTQ+ •GAY(BL)![A Kiss Under The Stars [BxB] COMPLETED](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/139572856-256-k58414.jpg)
